Commissioned whitepaper by renowned chemical engineering consultant

As author for this highly engaging whitepaper, eschbach was able to win inventor and consultant Dr. Joel Shertok (PH.D.). Dr. Shertok has developed novel products over multiple technologies: specialty chemicals (polymers, polymerization coatings), carbon fiber composites, biotech-based nutritionals, membrane filtration, ion exchange and carbon-based separations and formulation development.


How does Shiftconnector® help in avoiding or mitigating upsets within the process industry?

Be it with 24/7 operation, or special situations like the COVID-19 crisis – the process industry faces a multitude of unique challenges concerning production safety and a streamlined workflow. Shertok's whitepaper casts a light on the ways eschbach's webbrowser-based solution helps in optimizing workplace safety. It takes an in-depth look on topics like team agility, plant reliabilty, interfunctional hand-offs, and much more.


Case study on building reliability for different operational levels

Problem identification, communications, corrective actions and documentation are all crucial, when dealing with an upset within the process industry. By taking a close look on the example of a cumene/phenol plant, the whitepaper builds a valid case for the use of Shiftconnector®.
